A Brave Face

  • Show Information

Award-winning Vamos Theatre brings its trademark, wordless, full mask style to a story that needs to be told. Set in Afghanistan in 2009, A Brave Face explores Post-Traumatic Stress, an unseen injury of war, and the impact it can have on even the closest of families. With engaging storytelling, physical dexterity and emotional insight, A Brave Face engages audiences across borders and boundaries.

“If you’ve never seen full mask theatre, there could be no better introduction than Vamos… the irresistible mix of humour and heartbreak makes them a must-see.”

“The storytelling is excellent”
